Zero Wing Insanity

from the all-your-base-are-belong-to-us dept

If you haven't seen anything with "ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONG TO US" in the last few days, then you haven't been surfing enough. It's been appearing on webpages, in newsgroups, in disucssions, on mailing lists... just about everywhere. And now the press is finally writing about it. Salon mentioned it a few days ago, and now the Register is talking about it complete with some pictures. It's one of the weirder internet cult phenomenons, and no one seems to have figured out exactly what's going on yet.

Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.

Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.

While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

–The Techdirt Team

    in this case, it is warranted. the clip is over a year old.

    The clip? The game is a lot older than that. But, the fact that it's showing up EVERYWHERE is a very recent thing. And, it's only just now being reported on. So, I consider this current news.

    clip

    the clip i was referring to was the flash animation which created all this buzz about a year ago. none of the mainstream "news" sites had covered it. i guess it is hitting critical mass now.
